This is a mosque in the Sarkhej area of Ahmedabad., once famously referred to as the Acropolis of the East. Built in the 15th century, it is yet another piece of the architectural splendours of the city. The water of the artificial reservoir was all dried up when we visited, making it a perfect ground for the local kids to play a game of cricket. Originally a sultan's retreat, even today people come here for a moment of quiet and peace right in the middle of the bustling ahmedabad.View more photos from Ahmedabad.
